Curation is a growing need in organizations, and as such, a growing competency for those focused on worker performance. At the same time, the vision of what this competency looks like in practice is cloudy. How will what we do look different when we add curation to our skill sets?

Sure it is!! Last week I showed my students how to scoopit. I thought that since they seem to love Facebook, Scoopit was going to be a wow experience for them. However, contrary to my expectations most of them did not show a real interest, or at least the kind of interest I expected. What a pain! Maybe it is a matter of time, culture, love for reading and writing, etc. From a group of 12 youngers, only 2 of them said: Thanks teacher, I like it! Well... I will keep on trying...

TeachThought.com has a series of posts about self-directed learning by Terry Heick and the staff, well worth a read! “

“Learning is most effective when it’s personalised; it means something to the learner. That happens when people feel they are participants and investors in their own learning, shaping what and how they learn, and able to articulate its value to them.” — Leadbeater, Charles

You can't teach someone how to learn. You can give them helpful tips and advice, but a single structure for education is not going to work for everyone. It's so much harder for people to learn their true potential, to reach their goals, when they're only shown a single path to them. You show them the path through the forest, but what if there's a rock face nearby that also leads up to where they want to go, and what if they happen to be a fantastic rock climber? It just makes more sense to show someone a map if you can, instead of directing them towards only one path.

Up isn’t the only way to go if you’re seeking to advance your career. Lateral, or even downward, moves can be just as beneficial to achieving your career goals.

Paul Rawlinson's insight:

Upward, linear career development is becoming a thing of the past. Sometimes you need to move laterally, or even downwards. This is why the climbing wall is a more appropriate metaphor these days, instead of the traditional 'ladder'

Career development is now a multi-dimensional facet of the modern business, and is trumpeted for driving better retention of people and more effective recruitment of talent into the organization. #innov8u #careers #development
